THE ENGLISH SYSTEM.
METHODS OF VOTING ADOPTED IN
ENGLAND AND AUSTRALIA.

How Candidates ler Aartiaioent are
Nonninatet.-Forn of Ballot Paper Used
at the Polling STANDARDIZATION
Cost Of an Election.
In q recent number Of his magazine,
The North American Review. 81. Thorn
dixie Rice describes the present system Of
baIIoting in England, and contends that
with suitable notifications it should be
adopted in this country, for he regards
our methods Of voting as corrupt and de-
grading.
The English system was established by
what Is generally known as the ballot
act OF 1872 and is based on the methods
which have been used in the Australian
colonies for quarter of century and
more. In the first place candidates for
parliament are nominated in writing by
two registered electors of the county or
borough and with the written assent Of
eight other electors. This nomination
paper'' must be delivered to the returning
officer by the candidate or his proposer or
seconder in person, and that official is re-
ouired to publish the names of candidates.
The ballot paper" consists Of a paper
containing the names and descriptions Of
the candidates. and on the back OF each
ballot is printed number, which is also
printed on the face Of a counterfeit at
tached TO it.
At the time of voting the ballot paper
must be marked On both sides with an
official mark, and delivered within the
polling station 10 the voter, whose num-
b,r on the register Of voters IS required to
be marked on the counterfeit 10 make

THE AMERICAN PARTY.
Politicians Watching the New Move
ment with Interest.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.-The convention of
the American party, which will convene at
Philadelphia ON Sept. is, is exciting the at
tention Of those who closely watch political
movements. The arrangements for hol'-
ing this convention have been perfected so
quietly that it is expected that the orgonza-
ton is becoming more comprehensive in
membership and extensive in jurisdiction
than has been supposed. In connection with
this movement it is proposed to establish in
New York city a weekly newspaper to ex-
plain and advocate the principles and aims
OF the order.
l4rrge subscriptions havA alrca y been
made for this purpose. The reticence of the
leaders in the American party movement is
puzzling to the pol ticians, who are curious
to learn all its purposes that they may be able
to speculate upon the problem as to whether
the party will draw greater membership from
the Republican or Democratic parties
1t is expected that one Of the principal dec
arations of the Philadelphia convention will
bs in favor Of a stringent law imposing GER
tain restrictions on foreign immigration.

TROUBLE MAY FOLLOW.
AUTHORITIES CONFERRING on THE
UTE QUESTION AT MEEKER.
Conflicting Estimates Made of Loss OF
Life and Property-The Indians
Want Their Ponies, Sheep
and Goats Returned.

DENVER, Sept. 3.-The army and state au-
thorities and Indian Agent Byrnes are in
conference at Meeker on the Ute question.
Agent Byrnes and Lieut.. Burt feel quite pos
tive that more trouble will follow unless the
captured ponies, sheep and goats are restored
to the Indians. They repeat the Indian
story that in the fight near Rangley the Utes
had two of their number wounded by the
whites one boy was tramped to death 10y a
horse and one girl was wounded. Three
Utes were wounded in the first attack by
Game Warden Burgett.
They lost 800 horses, 200 sheep and some
goats, and these they demand While men
VINO were in the fight give different version
of it, Lieut.. Taylor says he saw three Indians
fall, and they were either killed or playing
"possum.n He feels certain that eight LII
dians were killed. He saw hides in their
camp bearing the brands of cattle men in
Garfield county.
Another member of the sherihs party says
he saw five killed and that over seventy
Indians were in the fight The Indians told
"squaw man, white man who lives with
squaw, who has a ranch near the cattle
field, that they lost fifteen killed and six
were MORALLY wounded This man felt GER
tain that five We're killed, and that "topknots'
could be produced for that number.
These variations are explained 10y the wei
known habit of Indians to fasify their losses
and as Agent Byrnes is a new man the sup
| position is that he does not understand theii
ways of lying. Seventy captured ponies are
now at Meeker in charge of the state troops
and these with POO others at Rangely will he
delivered to the Utes. A small force of reg
ulars is to be stationed at Rangely 10y agree
ment between Governor Adams and Gen
Crook, and captured property will he sent tt

Adams left Meeker for Denver and Col

day of last week man, representing himself
as Mr.. Jones, of the firm of f. H. Leggett e.
Co., New York, called at the Fairview house,
and, on learning that the proprietor, Mr..
Dunkley, was out of town, engaged accom-
modations for his family of nine. He was
little short of money, he said, and pre-
sented a check to Mrs Dunkley for $780,
signed by the name of Leggett ~ Co., and
received the amount, He shortly after took
his departure. The check has been pro
nounced a forgery. The man is a complete

recognized from his photograph in the

man. This is the third time within the last
three months that the man has successfully
forged the name of Leggett g. Co. to checks
